02- Brakes#2012256
40 units affected
On some street sweepers built on UD Truck chassis, the air brake system may not comply with Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 121- Air Brake Systems. During the conversion into a street sweeper, the primary and secondary circuits may have been tied together and may no longer be isolated. This would cause a loss of both the front and rear service brakes in the event of an air leak in either service brake circuit, which could result in a reduction of braking performance, increased stopping distances, loss of system pressure and/or emergency brake application. Correction: Elgin authorized repair facilities will inspect the air lines and re-route as necessary.
- Engine#2011184
3 units affected
On certain street sweeper trucks, the radiator fan, mounted to the crankshaft of the auxiliary engine (which powers the sweeper system), could fail. Under heavy operating conditions and high auxiliary engine speed, the blades could separate from the base of the fan and strike another vehicle, stationary object or bystander, causing property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Dealers will relocate the radiator fan from the crankshaft to a belt-driven pulley.
